    Looks like a nice paddle strop you got there, two sided? I have the paddle strop from Lynn and the boys at SRD and it is awesome. I like that i can switch the leather out if it gets torn up or if I want something with more/less draw. Less expensive to buy a new pad / leather than a whole new strop.

    Yes its double sided. It has a clear napped vegetable-tanned cow leather and the other a napped oil-tanned cow leather, and i got and extra napped leather panel in witch i putted the diamond .25 mycron sharpening paste, do you think i should put de 1 mycron or higher in the other panel that came with the strop ? Or leave it as it is ?

    Honestly, I put .25 on the felt side of my paddle strop and wasn't a big fan. Others here use it and have better luck I think. .

    No I just go through my honing progression, strop with linen and then leather, done. See what works for you, good luck.
